Okay so I've finally got around to installing the ID3 in hopes of enjoying 14psi. Now after I play around with the boost and gain settings I can't get it to hold a constant boost and i have tried both auto and manual settings.

It will spike to 16-18psi and hit fuel cut, so i turn the boost setting down one notch and it will only boost to something like 11psi wtf!

I've triple checked all the wiring and pressure connections and everything seems to be fine.

All the limiters and warnings and stuff are turned off to so that completely eliminates that problem.. is there something I'm missing here?

16-18psi fuel cut? I'd be more concerned about the accuracy of your boost gauge...

I'm using the ID3 peak reading as the boost gauge at the moment. It's actaully hit cut at 14-15psi but I've seen it read higher before.

Would it be because I have the boost sense line coming off the MAP sensor line, but the turbo actuator and pressure lines are connected to the solenoid?

Should I take the solenoid and boost sense pressures from the same source?
